Poetry is a form of literature. Poetry is a form of literature in which special attention is given to expressing emotions by the use of a different form than fiction or drama. Poetry is made up of individual lines that can start and end anywhere on the page according to the poet’s choice. Poetry depends upon the sound of the words by themselves or together with other words. Poetry also depends on the use of lots of imagery (words or phrases that appeal to the senses), and figurative language that contains figures of speech like similes and metaphors to help the reader understand the poet’s ideas and feelings.

A Red, Red Rose by Robert Burns My love is like a red, red rose That’s newly sprung in June : My love is like the melody That’s sweetly played in tune. As fair art thou, my bonnie lass, So deep in love am I : And I will love thee still, my dear, Till a’ the seas gang dry. Till a’ the seas gang dry, my dear, And the rocks melt wi’ the sun : And I will love thee still, my dear, While the sands o’ life shall run.
